<p>What are your SAT scores?</p>

3

<p>You don’t have any safeties on that list. That’s my only concern. </p>

<p>You seem like a competitive applicant, but all these schools are extremely competitive and hard to get into.</p>

<p>I understand what you are saying. Yes I do have safeties that I didn’t mention here. I also applied to Florida International, University of florida, American university and Umiami. I got into Umiami and American already.</p>

<p>As far as my SAT scores, I did not take SAT. I am an international student from a non english speaking country. I have to take the TOEFL test instead. I did and score high enough for all these schools.</p>

<p>Hard to believe top schools will consider you without SATs. All the international students I’ve worked with take both TOEFL and SATs.</p>

<p>In fact here’s what Hrvard says, SATs or ACT is required of ALL transfer students:</p>
